(Lancaster, Pa.)  The Pennsylvania Dutch Convention & Visitors Bureau (PA Dutch CVB) has hired Carissa Dommel as its new Group Sales Manager. She will spearhead the organization’s daily marketing and promotion of the Lancaster County destination to the tour and travel market.
 
“With her background in tourism sales and understanding of what both our clients and members need, we’re thrilled to welcome Carissa to our team and look forward to her contributions in further growing Lancaster County as a leading group travel destination” said Chris Barrett, PA Dutch CVB president and CEO.
 
Prior to joining the CVB, Dommel worked at the Country Inn of Lancaster, most recently as director of sales. A resident of Lancaster, she holds a bachelor’s degree in mathematics from Millersville University.
 
Lancaster County is a wonderful blend of urban style and rural splendor, and the PA Dutch Convention & Visitors Bureau is dedicated to promoting its many rich cultures, from the Amish to the arts. Travelers can take in our vibrant downtown city life – with galleries, great dining, specialty shops, and live music – or explore surrounding towns and villages to get a sampling of the heritage, food, craftsmanship, and hands-on activities for which Lancaster is famous. Visit us at www.discoverlancasterpa.com. Lancaster is also part of Pennsylvania’s Dutch Country Roads region, a true vacation destination where country meets city and the past lives side-by-side with the present.
